    Executive & Leadership Coaching

    Whether you’re a CEO, board chair, or senior executive, leadership can feel isolating. At Serré & Associates / Associés, we walk alongside leaders—helping you stay grounded, make tough calls with clarity, and grow into the leader your team and community need. Our coaching approach is practical and people-centered: real conversations, not theory. We draw from lived experience in governance, politics, and business to support leaders who want to inspire trust, lead with purpose, and deliver results.

    Board & Governance Advisory

    Strong boards build strong organizations. We help boards—from non-profits to municipal corporations—create governance structures that are not only effective but rooted in trust, transparency, and accountability. Whether you’re just starting to formalize governance or refining policies for a mature board, our approach is collaborative and accessible. We focus on equipping board members with the tools, confidence, and shared vision they need to serve their communities well.

    Small Business Strategy & Execution

    For small businesses, the challenge isn’t coming up with ideas—it’s finding the focus and discipline to turn vision into results. We help entrepreneurs and family-owned businesses create practical roadmaps for growth, grounded in the realities of their markets and communities. Our role doesn’t stop at the whiteboard—we help you move from plan to action, ensuring that strategy translates into execution and long-term impact.

    Community Engagement & Strategic Planning

    The best strategies are built with—not for—the people they affect. We design planning processes that listen first, bringing together voices from across the community to shape priorities and define solutions. From municipalities to grassroots organizations, we facilitate conversations that lead to clear, actionable plans with broad buy-in. Our style is inclusive, down-to-earth, and hands-on, because meaningful planning is about building trust as much as it is about setting goals.
